Sorry for the noise, will remove it.

Yes, we can move it as child of soc.

Thanks for the comments here, will modify it later.

The MACH_MMPX_DT here is for standard ARM core based SoC.
But PJ4 is modified by Marvell, which includes IWMMXT.

Thanks for the remind, will modify it later.

This function is used to static map the device registers.

Two reasons:
1. some of the device still need platform data at this time.
2. we use device name as clk name.
Will change it later, but need some time.

Yes, we will change to use CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE later.
But it need time, so let's keep it at this time.

Thanks for the remind, will use init_early for it.

Thanks, will use nr_cpu_ids here.
